[PATCH 59/76] Simplify devpts_pty_kill

From: Alan Cox
Date: Sun Oct 05 2008 - 12:26:27 EST


From: Sukadev Bhattiprolu <sukadev@xxxxxxxxxx>

When creating a new pty, save the pty's inode in the tty->driver_data.
Use this inode in pty_kill() to identify the devpts instance. Since
we now have the inode for the pty, we can skip get_node() lookup and
remove the unused get_node().

TODO:
- check if the mutex_lock is needed in pty_kill().
